What did you do to your Sedan today?

Hey Calg37USMG How did you get such good numbers on the dyno? Do you have test pipes? I have been tempted to do stuff to my car, but in CA, a lot of it is difficult unless you pay some sketchy guy 100 to say he attached your car to a smog station.
I know, I should read, but I am lazy. I would imagine that WA would be almost as stringent on Smog tests as CA.

This is actually from my second Dyno run at another shop, I was skeptical so I wanted to make sure I was actually making the power shown.
Runs were in 3rd,4th, and 5th.

Installation was a success! After quite a few measurements & adjustments, I’m pretty happy with the look, but I am in dire need of an alignment and I’m sure I’ll need new tires before March. I am currently running 245/35/20 tires, but a local tire shop was kind enough to test fit a 255/35/20 for me. Being that my offset is so aggressive, I don’t think I’ll be able to go much wider than that. The 255 actually provided far more coverage than I expected, so I’ll be purchasing a set pretty soon. Until then (once the snow & ice melts) I’ll be getter her aligned so she will no longer feel as if she’s fish tailing over every imperfection in the street.

I've never really looked at the steering rack in our cars. Is the inner tie rod boot really held on with those twist tie type "clamps" from the factory?

Just little things:
Replaced the rear plate hardware because the dealer put HUGE screws in there for some reason. Then I installed my bumper plugs up front. Debating replacing the cabin air filter today as well.

Made an appointment for 1:00 tomorrow to have the dealer check out what appears to be a leak from the steering rack.
This will only be the 2nd time I've taken my car back to the dealer since July-2012. The other time being for the clock light and a flickering backup camera (dirty connection). Not too bad for 5.5 years and 52,000 miles.
